The hypotheses for this study was that as the students were to get more feedback then they would be closer to drawing a line exactly 6 inches long. b. The hypothesis was consistent with the results. This is because the no feedback

Unformatted text preview: group had line average of 5.28 inches, the general feedback group had an average of 5.85 inches, and the specific feedback group had an average of 5.98 inches. This shows that as the students were given more feedback than the students in the group before them, they were able to draw lines closer to the correct length. c. We were able to get an accurate test of the hypothesis. I think this because we had an even number of people in each group and tested them enough times to get an accurate showing. Also our results were very consistent with the hypothesis. The only thing I can think of that might be a better way to test this hypothesis is have the same students go through each feedback group, so then you have a learning curve for each student. This would show if the feedback actually contributed to the student’s learning....
